Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Here’s a timely offer for bargain hunters – cheap beer and an exclusive chance to win a crate of champagne to arrive just in time for a New Year’s Eve party.

First the deal: you can get 10 per cent cashback through the CheckoutSmart app when you spend £20 or more on 24 top beer brands – including Becks, Bud, Leffe and Stella – at online retailers such as Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, Morrisons and Ocado.

You need to buy by 31 December but can spend £20 at different retailers to qualify. You can view the offer on the CheckoutSmart app – which can be downloaded from Apple Store or Google Play – and then shop online as normal and upload an image of your delivery receipt to the app.

Now the competition: to win a case of six bottles of Lansons Black Label Brut NV, simply answer the following question and email the answer to yourmoney@independent.co.uk by next Thursday, 16 December. The question: a jeroboam contains four bottles of champagne, but how many bottles does a rehoboam contain?

Cut-price bestsellers

The bookshop chain Blackwell’s is offering 30 per cent off 662 of 2015’s bestselling paperbacks, including H is for Hawk by Helen Macdonald, down from £8.99 to £6.29.

Buy at blackwells.co.uk or at branches.
